Is it safe to put a ground under the carpet, or do i have to cut a hole around the ground? Also, i watched an instructional video on grounding a long time ago, and i remember the guy putting 3 or 4 screws in the ring terminal to keep it down. Is that alright, or do i have to bolt? I'm putting the ground (1/0) where my jack used to be under the backseat of my dodge ram. I know its safe to drill there because there are bolts already there for a bracket to hold the jack.

so upcoming in march, i have a build scheduled. my brother will be helping me with the carpentry aspects, i am doing rest of install from what i gathered in the other thread before it was closed, is that my buddy should go with a BL 18 for his 66' impala. already planning on double mids and highs, mids are most likely gonna be mach5 mli's, and tweets are undecided. who is running a BL18? what specs are the box, tuning, volume, etc. any help would be appreciated. i would like to keep this topic on a positive note, no dissing or putting down, i am sure denim is tired of closing threads.

Hi to all, I'm new to the forum and I need info about a new enclosure based on two REaudio sx12 subs, I've thinked about a 4cf tuned to 35hz box 'cause I listen to hipop/rap and r&b kind of music. Can the box be built with mdf light or mdf ultra light material?

lookin for info on the big3 and pics if ya got them thx!

what do you guys think of that sub?? a while back i blew out my terminators out of my box..hooked up 5k watts lol i turned it up the low hit to hard and bam!! they broke.. i want a cheap sub for the terminator box it came with.. i have a rockford fosgate amp to it 250 rms at 2 ohms has anyone heard the orion cobalts? the new ones??

Has anyone ever taken out the backseat of a sedan or coupe in order to make space for an enclosure? This is like a mini-wall type enclosure with two 12s or two 15s, most likely the two 12s going directly behind the front seats. I was wondering if it is worth it, i want to optimize output without having the rear seat distorting the sound waves, and the difficulty of fitting a larger size box within the small trunk opening(going inside an infiniti G35 coupe). Would this be a good idea? I have no need for the backseat, so should i just go with it? Any input would be much appreciated.

well it looks like it'll be awhile before i get a 12 for the grand am, some issues came up and i won't have money for awhile. so untill then i decided to make a box for the atlas to get the most out of it. right now its in a 2.5cf sealed box with 1 pound of pollyfill, it gets decently loud and low but i need more. heres my dilema though after i get a new sub im gonna make the atlas an HT sub so i need an enclosure that will play low well. so i was thinking either going with a 4cf "regular" ported box tuned to 30hz or have someone design me a t-line. my only worry is how will a t-line work in a trunk car and how much space would i have to give. max i would be able to fit …

My setup is 4 Q15's tuned to 34hz (lowering it to 28hz soon..hopefully) on an Incriminator Audio 40.1 @ .5ohms in a Dodge Magnum.

So I just moved my XCON into the garage yesterday because I was planning on putting them both in tomorrow. This morning while half asleep I bumped my toolbox and a heavy ratchet fell directly onto the dust cap..... After getting the dust cap off I was surprised to see this. So I'm assuming this means that I can still put them both in tomorrow, and just put the cap on when it arrives? (Thanks to Aaron for taking care of me super fast!)

I have enough room for a box 38w*15t*20d and the xcon recomends 4 cubic feet. whats the optimal size

I'm posting this thread in the general section so that maybe more people will see it. This is a plea to get people to write product reviews. In my opinion, that is one of the most valuable resources that this forum can have yet it is being severely underutilized. Write a review about all of your equipment, not just subs (as I know that's the most popular). We get many threads each day with people trying to figure out what equipment to buy and we could point them to the review section. But right now there are about four reviews in the last four months in there. However, there is a caveat to my encouragement. Please write a good review. This includes positives and neg…

Just sold my Dual 2ohm BTL N2 to my buddy. It was working for a few songs then randomly cut off for a few seconds and then would turn back on for a bit, and this would happen over and over. Didnt really have enough time to diagnose anything last night but I was going to try to find out what was happening today. He has a Kicker ZX1000.1so I wired the sub in series. Weirdest thing is that he said it wasnt happening with his other subs. I was going to check the regular stuff like voltage at the amp and make sure I actually did wire the sub properly but Im not sure why it would be doing this in the first place. He told me the amp stays on so Im lost.

So I recently ordered one 15 in icon. my question is what box should I get for it...such as thickness ..size..Hz...ect

For my setup (In My Sig.) which mids and highs are the best, crisp, and loudest between these three? MIDS Rockford Fosgate http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_2481_R...nch+P1692S.html Kicker http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_11504_Kicker+KS6930.html JL Audio http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_1603_J...+TR690-TXi.html HIGHS (TWEETERS) Kicker http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_11520_Kicker+08KS20.html Rockford Fosgate http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_18209_...gate+P1T-S.html

What size fuses should I get in the distro block for each line? I plan on putting both the amps, crossovers and distribution block in the tire well to be covered with a sheet of mdf for a false floor (maybe a plexiglass view window for looks) will it get too warm u…
